In another bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, almonds and salt. Should be the consistency to spread (not melted).

On a lightly floured surface, take each puff pastry sheet and cut in half, diagonally. Set aside one half.

Lightly roll out pastry sheet to approximately ¼" thickness.

Using a spatula, spread a thin layer of butter/sugar mixture onto pastry. Fold pastry in half, creating another triangle. Spread more mixture onto pastry and fold again. Repeat process until you have a triangle big enough to fit on top of ramekin (about 3").

Place pastry triangle on top of berries in ramekin and brush with egg mixture. Sprinkle tops of pastry with coconut sugar.

Bake at 400 degrees for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.
